Itacho Secret Menu: Off-Menu Orders and Seasonal Finds
Quick answer: Itacho did not publish an official secret menu in Singapore, so there is no hidden list to unlock. The real finds are off-menu requests staff could make, rotating seasonal and promo boards, and custom tweaks to regular items. Diners asked politely, kept requests simple, and expected some answers to be no.
Did Itacho have a secret menu?
No. During this research, no official secret menu, hidden menu page or staff-only list from Itacho Singapore turned up. Guides and blogs that promise a secret menu were usually dressing up regular promo items, custom orders and seasonal boards as secrets. That honesty matters, because chasing a fake list wastes a visit.

What does exist is flexible ordering. Since you order piece by piece on a form, small changes are easy: extra spice, a different sauce, a roasted version of a fish you like, or a sashimi cut of a fish on the nigiri list. Those are requests, not a secret menu, and staff can say no when the kitchen is busy or an item is out.
What off-menu requests could you ask for at Itacho?
Keep it to one change per item. A roasted version of a plain nigiri, extra spicy salmon in a hand roll, or a lighter sauce on a rich piece are the kinds of tweaks a sushi kitchen can handle. Bigger inventions, like a whole new roll with five fillings, are less likely to land well during a rush.

Off-menu requests that work
Try roasted salmon with cheese if it is not on the day’s card, yellowtail with black truffle sauce, or a salmon lobster salad roll built from regular fillings. Ask for a small sashimi tasting of two or three fish you already like, rather than a mystery chef’s choice, so the price stays clear.
Always ask the price before a custom order goes in. A premium fish or a double topping can lift a piece price fast, and a custom order is harder to send back than a card item.
What seasonal and promo boards should you have watched?
Itacho runs rotating seasonal items, and reviewers keep noting promo boards at the door and table. Past reports mention yellowtail festivals, crab season items, half-price promo pieces and a salmon piece at SGD 0.40 with a per-person limit. Those deals are tied to dates and outlets, so an old report is not proof a deal is live today.

Seasonal and promo boards
Check the board before you sit down, and ask which promo pieces are still in stock. Snow crab items, fatty tuna cuts and seasonal sashimi are the kinds of boards that sell out first. If a board item sounds good, order it in the first round.
How did you order something that was not on the menu?
Ask in one short sentence, name the base item, then name the change. For example, ask for roasted salmon with cheese, or yellowtail with truffle sauce, and ask the price. If staff say yes, write it clearly on the form or repeat it back. If they say no, pick the closest card item and move on, since pushing rarely helps.

Go at a quiet time for custom orders. A calm kitchen has room for a tweak, while a packed lunch rush does not. Small groups also get more flexibility than a big table with a long form.
What should you not have expected from the Itacho secret menu?
Do not expect a hidden discount, a free item or a secret dish that staff must serve on request. Do not expect every outlet to offer the same promo, since boards vary by outlet and season. And do not trust social posts that list secret prices without a date or outlet, since Itacho prices have clearly moved over the years.
